Manure for the Garden.


During several years experience in
gardening L have found it Improbable to
ralse vegetables for market without a
heavy application of manure. Stable
manure Is the main reliance, but the mar
ket value is so high that it must be APP
Piled iudiciously to make its use profit
able. l have used commercial fertilizer
freely for two years, but find it inferior
Tor the garden to stable manure com
posted with forest leaves or forest mould.
Great care seculd be used in saving ma
nure, or You may have bulk OF but little
Salue. Forest leaves when well rotted
seem to be especially adapted to the gar
aener wants. L have had the greatest
success with compost of two-thirds or
one-half forest mould, and one-third or
one half stable manure, kept moist and
well covered, for&ed over occasionally TO
mix and make fine and 70 regulate the
moisture. This will be found rich plant
food and well adapted for any crop.
Moreover, find seed terminate better
with the compost than with any other
manure, particularly commercial fertiliz-
ers. No evil consequences follow a super
ABUNDANT application of manure. 4 COM
post formed of the following substances
makes an excellent fertilizer for veg
etables: For base take forest mould 4:
upon this throw all animal matter found
about the premises-the carcasses of
small animals, Cffal OF every kind, wooden
rags, bones, -Old boots and shoes and
waste leather of every description the
droppings of the fowls, soapsuds, salt,
sloops from the sinks, ashes, nightsoil, in
fact, anything that will decompose.
Green leaves and vegetable matter of
whatever sort will aid to give moisture,
which the compost must have. AS often
as necessary to keep down bad oders and
to hold escaping gasses, grass sods or
soil from the fence corners should be
thrown over the heap. When thoroughly
decomposed this will be a fertilizer of
great value-Thomas d. Baird.

Effects of Inbreeding
American AgriculturiSt.

Take flock of common hens of all
colors, shapes and sizes, so as to conduct
an experiment. Place with them a pure
bred Plymouth Rock cock, and the chicks
will become uniform and so near like
Plymouth Rocks that it will be difficult to
distinguish them from pure-bred. To
continue the experiment, the next season
use cock of the last years production,
with pullet's of the same blood. That Is,
keep one of the half-bred Plymouth Rocks
and mate him with few of the half-bred
pullets. The result will be that chicks
Matched from the eggs laid by the half
bred pullets will revert to like their gran
dams, and Instead of being uniform, like
the cross from the pure-bred Plymouth
Rocks will come of all colors, shapes and
sizes (when larger). By inbreeding the
uniformity is destroyed, because the par
ents ara not pure bred. Hence, always
use pure-bred male in the flock, no mat
ter of what breed it may be, a1d your
chicks will be not only uniform, but sup
erlor to those of the previous season.
The same rule applies to the breeding
of cattle, sheep, and to all domestic ami
mails.

low Ingalls, Won His Wife.
prpyi.Inrpa Star

When Ingalls, first went to Kansas he
was supposed to be an irreclaimable
bachelor. He paid no attention to the
girls of the frontier, and the pretty
maldens of the West cast their eyes at
him in vain. He met, however, at a re-
ceptIon one night the daughter of a New
York merchant, who had just come to
Atchison. Her name was Miss Anna
theeseborough, and she was very fair to
look upon. He talked to her and found
her conversation as bright as her eyes,
and he rode back to Summer full of pos
slbllitles which his soul had not dreamed
of heretofore. Shortly after this one of
his friends was married, and Ingalls, was
asked to be his best man. To his delight
he found that Miss Anna Cheeseborough
was one of the bridesmaids. After this
the counting went on rapidly and his
marriage was the result The Mrs.
Ingalls, of to-day is the Miss Anna Cheese
borough of the past. She is one of the
brightest women of Washington society,
as well as one of the best looking. She
has had large family, but the cares of
maternity do not weigh upon her, and
she enters as fully into Senator Ingalls,
political career as though she had 20
domestic matters to bother her.

Big Doctor Bills.

The public often marvels at the prices
paid by rich persons for art objects.
Greater surprise might be caused by the
sums given to physicians for the preser-
walton of health. 1t has been said that
Miss Wolfe, the hopeless invalid, owner of
S10,0oo,o0o, pays DR.. William Todd Hell
mutn $4,000 year to doctor her. She
confirms those figures. Mrs. Alexander
I. Stewart retained three doctors at an
aggregate cost of at least $4,000, and
called IN one of them nearly every day.
She had what seemed like a system. BY
which she abided by the decision of two
out of three in matters of diet and medi-
cine. Mrs. William Aston pays to DR.. For
dice Barker personally an average of 500
600, always sending check for double or
treble the amount of each bill rendered.
Her idea is that by rewarding his skill and
vigilance literally she viii get the very
best service of which he is capable. Mrs.
Cornelius Vanderbilt's physician is DR..
W. 5. Belden, and though her health is
excellent he Is consulted often, proven
ton being preferable to cure, doubtless,
and the belief is that the prevention costs
not less than $4,000 annually.

feet beneath wnete we stood, lay leagne
on league Of the most lovely champaign
country. Here We're tense patches of lofty
forest, there great river wound its silyery
way. To the left stretched q vast expanse
OF rich unduiatiEg yeldt or grass land, on
which we could just make out countless
herds OF game or cattle at that distance we
could not tell which. This expanse appeared
to be hinged in by wall OF distant noun
tains. To the right the country was more OF
less mountainous, that is solitary hills stood
up from its level, with stretches of cultiva.
ted lands between, among which we could
distinctly see groups of dome-shaped huts.
The landscape lay before US like map in
which rivers flashed like silver snakes, and
Alp-like peaks crowned with wildly twisted
snow-wreaths rose in solemn grandeur.
